myprotein.co.uk Delivery Question

settopbox

Silly question I know but.

Assuming I ordered from this company how would my package be delivered?

Is it An Post or a delivery company like DPD or Parcelforce.

Thanks

Absolute Zero

its a delivery company called DHL usually gets to ireland in about 2 days after your delivery, He will knock on your door and give it to ya personally

DPD, they will wnat you to sign for it and won't leave it without signing which can be a pain in the arse.

If it is something very small though (e.g. vitamins) it may come by normal post, as I have experienced this once or twice.

Dpd held mine in local depot for 2 weeks because myprotein had omitted my phone number so dpd couldnt be bothered enquiring where i lived. Arrived there from uk in 2 days but to get last 10 miles i had to collect it myself after the 2 weeks. Make sure you get tracking email from myprotein they didnt give me one.

I asked MyProtein to send me the tracking number again, because I received only "1" as a tracking#... .
I finally got the tracking# today, and was astonished to notice that the parcel was in IE 2 days after the shipment from the UK, but DPD wrote:

Since then, the parcel is "held in depot"...
My address is correct, and if those guys cannot even use (Google)Map there is nothing we can do for them~. They have my mobile phone number on the address (as the company name), maybe they called me but left no message what so ever. There is no way I am going to their depot: I paid for the delivery to my door!

I had a feeling they were like that, it's the first time I've heard about them.

They take their duty lightly, no wonder they have been bought by the French Post~, they merged as big crap! :mad:

1 week after my order, still no protein because of them...

Tomorrow they will certainly hear from me!:mad:

DPD are absolutely shocking. They've dumped my order with neighbours before when there wasn't anyone at home even tho they were directed not to.

Suppose ya pay peanuts and get monkeys. Worth the hassle tho to buy from myprotein tho, imo.

Yes this happened me too actually, its annoying that you can't enter your own special instructions rather than using the list, something like deliver before 10 would ensure I could be at the house, rather than making an order and hoping I'll be there on the day they arrive.

this is why i hate ordering online, i'm out of the house from 7am til at least 8pm. Pain.

Sometimes someone is home but not too often!

I actually paid 4.95 GBP for this~~ it is worth 0 Ruble~.

Anyway, I sent DPD a fax this morning, and called them straight away, they said they will deliver tomorrow~. I actually sent them my GPS coordinates, hahaha..

TO BE CONTINUED~~

Got my order today! Hurray~~

Next time, I will deliver it at my working place~~ it will be easier for everyone.

Enjoy your proteins~.:pac:
